As much as I wanted to vote "cyborgs" I had to say draft. Because, you know, its a safe step for Bush--none of his rich, white, Republican supporters will see any of their children go to war. They'd get out of it just like he did.
Gengrinch was on a show last Sunday, talking about how the draft will really bring the nation together or something. Maybe I misinterpreted him, but I believe he said, (paraphrasing), "The draft will really help people remember what we're doing in Iraq, and will help people remember the military, and what it's fighting for."
I wish I had the direct quote.
Anyway, coming from a totally Christian/Conservative family, it sounded like big, hairy, sweaty ballocks. I could only imagine what sort of hoo-hah it sounded like to the rest of the US.
Since the size of the US military is limited to the end strength authorized by Congress, the easiest way to increase the size of the military is to have Congress increase the authorized end strength, then recruit and retain personnel until the new authorized end strength is reached.
